PLANE'S FORCED LANDING.
INQUIRY TO BE RE-OPENED. .(By Telegraph—Fress Association.') NEW, PLYMOUTH, Last Night: The inquiry into the forced landing by Wilson Potaka, of Wanganui, in a Moth aeroplane in a river basin in the Kaimanawa ranges on January 8 is to be re-opened by the Western Federated Flying Club as a result of representations by Potaka's solicitor that all the evidence available at the original hearing was not brought out. At the original hearing Potaka was disqualified from flying for 12 months and ordered to pay the cost of salvaging the 'plane to New Plymouth. It was alleged that Potaka flew beyond the route for which he had been given permission.
